Hey I was wondering if someone could help me on this question I have a quiz on Monday but I keep getting confused on this question "How does the angle of incidence compare to the angle of reflection?" If anyone could help me you will get a medal thanks :) 💕

Question

$$\color{green}{\angle i = \angle r}$$
The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. That is the first law of reflection.

At the point of incidence where the ray strikes the mirror, a line can be drawn perpendicular to the surface of the mirror. This line is known as a normal line (labeled N in the diagram). The normal line divides the angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray into two equal angles.
